Proximity to the Fort Bravo saloon ans shows.

I stayed at the one-bed bungalow at “Casa de desertio” for three days in October 2024 on my own as part of a short trip to see the three Western parks (Fort Bravo, Western Bravo, Mini-Hollywood) around Tabernas, as well as participating in some filming at Mini Hollywood. I booked this accommodation as it was very cheap and high up on the list of recommended accommodations in Tabernas. The bungalow is nice enough to earn the three-star rating on here, but with caveats, and I’m also going to go into a little more detail about the challenges of visiting Tabernas solo. The bungalow is at the end of a long winding dirt road in an Andalusian horse farm called PRE Pferde Andalusier, run by Judith (German) and Roberto (Spanish), just outside the northwest end of Tabernas. I got a taxi from Almería airport into Tabernas, and called Judith, who after hearing I would be walking the rest of the way, said Roberto would come to pick me up from the supermarket after I’d done shopping in half an hour. Roberto arrived 45 mins later and seemed very nice, but unlike Judith (who I never met), spoke no English. (It turns out that not many people in Tabernas do.) He drove down the long, winding dirt road into the horse farm and eventually reached the bungalow. Roberto was able to answer a few questions thanks to Google Translate before leaving. The bungalow itself is quite pleasant - one room with double bed (though only one long pillow!), cupboards, decorative fan, aircon, small sofa and TV, kitchen area, and then a separate bathroom with shower. The bed is comfy enough, and the AC unit is directly above the bed. Kitchen comes with some supplies, though I was disappointed by the lack of a kettle, and the cupboards were a bit hit-and-miss in terms of utensils etc (only one butter knife for toast). The bathroom was fine, no issues with running hot water, though the runners on the shower door were both broken, and needed some effort to close.

The facilities are secure if we want to let the bikes ther.

Fantastic welcome. Wonderful hosts. Beautiful room in a fantastic house. Great food, breakfast and dinner. Lovely garden and pool and somewhere to peg the washing ( important as cycle tourers). Hosts arranged taxi and tickets to Mini Hollywood which was amazing. Supermarket a few minutes walk away.

Pleasant town location. Very clean. Squeezed bikes to park in alley behind.

The receptionist was very kind and welcoming

Friendly helpful staff. Good value restaurant.

Location close to the attractions we wanted to visit. Peaceful

Even though it’s an old, dated property the room was very clean and comfortable . The baths are fabulous and worth booking into .
